Alley Cat Lyrics

So comfortable in the shade as they cut down the trees

The mirror lies in pieces, but the reflection still remains

Fear can be an ocean, don't sink beneath those waves

Just building castles in the sand in the eye of the hurricane

But through the cracks in the dam

In the glitch of the hologram

In the shadows of the pyramids

The knock of the battering ram

I'm still wide eyed

As an alley cat

Figuring how the magician pulled that rabbit out of his hat

The universe is library every story has its place

Existence is calligraphy and we are just the ink

And so if the devil's in the details should we just skim the page

For God hides in the aisles between science and fantasy

So when the train derails

In the glow of the comets' tail

Those red light window sales

All those bones on the Oregon trail

I'm still rattled

Like the shifting sands

On the plate forming cymatic patterns that we can't understand
